Knee Replacement

There are many types of knee replacement, from partial medial unicompartmental, patellofemoral, to total knee replacement. It is imperative for the patient to understand which surgery they are a good candidate for, and how to obtain a successful outcome after surgery - which does not occur in everyone.
